1 Name Class Date 12.3 Geometric Series Essential Question: How do you find the sum of a finite geometric series? Explore 1 Investigating a Geometric Series A series is the expression formed by adding the terms of a sequence. If the sequence is geometric and has a finite number of terms, it is called a finite geometric series. In this Explore, you will generate several related finite geometric series and find a formula for calculating the sum of each series. A Start with a rectangular sheet of paper and assume the sheet has an area of 1 square unit. Cut the sheet in half and lay down one of the half-pieces. Then cut the remaining piece in half, and lay down one of the quarter-pieces as if rebuilding the original sheet of paper. Continue the process: At each stage, cut the remaining piece in half, and lay down one of the two pieces as if rebuilding the original sheet of paper. Resource Locker Stage 1 Stage 2 Stage 3 Stage 4 B Complete the table by expressing the total area of the paper that has been laid down in two ways: as the sum of the areas of the pieces that have been laid down, and as the difference between 1 and the area of the remaining piece. Stage Sum of the areas of the pieces that have been laid down Difference of 1 and the area of the remaining piece _ 2 = = 1 - = = 1 - = = 1 - = Module Lesson 3
2 Reflect 1. Write the sequence formed by the areas of the individual pieces that are laid down. What type of sequence is it? 2. In the table from Step B, you wrote four related finite geometric series: 2, 2 + 4, , and _ One way you found the sum of each series was simply to add up 16 the terms. Describe another way you found the sum of each series. 3. If the process of cutting the remaining piece of paper and laying down one of the two pieces is continued, you obtain the finite geometric series ( 2 ) n at the nth stage. Use your answer to the previous question to find the sum of this series. Explore 2 Deriving a Formula for the Sum of a Finite Geometric Series To find a general formula for the sum of a finite geometric series with n terms, begin by writing the series as S(n) = a + ar + ar ar n - 1. A Find an expression for rs(n). rs(n) = ar + ar 2 + ar + ar B C D E Find an expression for S(n) - rs(n) by aligning like terms and subtracting. S(n) = a + ar + ar ar n - 1 rs(n) = ar + ar ar n ar n S(n) - rs(n) = a ar n Simplify the expression for S(n) - rs(n). S(n) - rs(n) = Factor the left and right sides of the equation in Step C. S(n) = (1 - r ) Divide both sides of the equation in Step D by 1 - r. - S(n) = a( 1 - r ) Module Lesson 3
3 Reflect 4. Check to see if the formula in Step E gives the same result as the answer you wrote for Reflect What restrictions are there on the values of r that can be used in the formula for the sum of a finite geometric series? Explain. Explain 1 Finding the Sum of a Finite Geometric Series The formula S(n) = a ( _ 1 - r n 1 - r ) for the sum of a geometric series requires knowing the values of a, r, and n. Recall that you learned how to find a and r for a geometric sequence, and the technique is no different for a series: a is the value of the first term, and r is the ratio of any two successive terms. To find n, you can simply count the terms if they are all listed. For instance, for the finite geometric series , you can see that a = 3, r = 2, and n = 5. If some of the terms of a finite geometric series have been replaced by an ellipsis, as in , you obviously can t count the terms. One way to deal with this situation is to generate the missing terms by using the common ratio, which in this case is 3. The next term after 18 is 3(18) = 54, and repeatedly multiplying by 3 to generate successive terms gives , so the series has 7 terms. Another way to find the number of terms in is to recognize that the nth term in a geometric series is ar n - 1. For the series whose nth term is 2(3) n - 1, find n as follows: 2(3) n - 1 = 1458 Set the nth term equal to the last term. (3) n - 1 = 729 Divide both as power of 3 (3) n - 1 = 3 6 Write 729 as a power of 3 n - 1 = 6 When the bases are the same, you can equate the exponents. n = 7 Add 1 to both sides Find the sum of the finite geometric series. A Step 1 Find the values of a, r, and n. The first term in the series is a. a = 5 Find the common ratio r by dividing two successive terms. r = _ 15 5 = 3 Count the terms to find n. n = 6 Module Lesson 3
4 Step 2 Use the formula S(n) = a ( _ 1 - r n 1 - r ). Substitute the values of a, r, and n. S(6) = _ ( 1-3 ) Evaluate the power in the numerator. = 5 ( _ ) Simplify the numerator and denominator. = 5 ( _ ) Simplify the fraction. = 5(364) Multiply. = 1820 B Step 1 Find the values of a, r, and n. The first term in the series is a. a = Find the common ratio by dividing two successive terms. r = _ 8 = Set the nth term, _ 1 4 ( 2) n - 1, equal to the last term to find n. 4 ( 2) n - 1 n - 1 Multiply both sides by. ( 2) Write 128 as a power of _ 1 2. ( 2) n - 1 Equate the exponents. n - 1 = = = 128 = ( 2) Add 1 to both sides. n = Step 2 Use the formula S(n) = _ 1-r a( n 1 - r). 1 - ( ) Substitute the values of a, r, and n. S(8) = ( ) 1 - Evaluate the power in the numerator. = 4 ( _ 1 - ) 1-2 Simplify the numerator and denominator. = _ 4 ( _ 256 ) 2 Simplify the fraction. = 4 ( ) Multiply. = Module Lesson 3
5 Your Turn Find the sum of the finite geometric series Module Lesson 3
6 Explain 2 Solving a Real-World Problem Involving a Finite Geometric Series Some financial problems can be modeled by a geometric series. For instance, an annuity involves equal payments made at regular intervals for a fixed amount of time. Because money can be invested and earn interest, comparing the value of money today to the value of money in the future requires accounting for the effect of interest. The future value of an annuity is how much the annuity payments will be worth at some point in the future. The present value of an annuity is how much the annuity payments are worth in the present. Although an interest rate is typically expressed as an annual rate, it can be converted to a rate for other periods of time. For instance, an annual interest rate of r% results in a monthly interest rate of r %. In general, if interest is earned n times per year, an annual interest rate 12 of r% is divided by n. Example 2 A Niobe is saving for a down payment on a new car, which she intends to buy a year from now. At the end of each month, she deposits $200 from her paycheck into a dedicated savings account, which earns 3% annual interest that is applied to the account balance each month. After making 12 deposits, how much money will Niobe have in her savings account? Niobe is interested in the future value of her annuity (savings plan). A 3% annual interest rate corresponds to a _ 3 % = 0.25% monthly interest rate. 12 First, calculate the sequence of end-of-month account balances. Recognize the recursive nature of the calculations: The end-of-month balance for month 1 is $200 because the first deposit of $200 is made at the end of the month, but the deposit doesn t earn any interest that month. The end-of-month balance for any other month is the sum of the previous month s end-of-month balance, the interest earned on the previous month s end-of-month balance, and the next deposit. So, if B(m) represents the account balance for month m, then a recursive rule for the account balances is B(1) = 200 and B(m) = B(m - 1) + B(m - 1) Notice that you can rewrite the equation B(m) = B(m - 1) + B(m - 1) as B(m) = B(m - 1) by using the Distributive Property. Image Credits: Fuse/ Getty Images Module Lesson 3
7 Month End-of-month balance of account [200(1.0025) + 200] = 200 (1.0025) (1.0025) [200 (1.0025) (1.0025) + 200] = 200 (1.0025) (1.0025) (1.0025) [200 (1.0025) ] = 200 (1.0025) (1.0025) Next, find the sum of the finite geometric series that represents the end-of-month balance after 12 deposits. You may find it helpful to use the commutative property to 11 rewrite 200 (1.0025) (1.0025) as (1.0025) (1.0025) so that it s easier to see that the initial term a is 200 and the common ratio r is Also, you know from the recursive process that this series has 12 terms. Apply the formula for the sum of a finite geometric series in order to obtain the final balance of the account. 12 S(12) = ( ) To evaluate the expression for the sum, use a calculator. You may find it helpful to enter the expression in parts and rely upon the calculator s Answer feature to accumulate the results. (You should avoid rounding intermediate calculations, because the round-off errors will compound and give an inaccurate answer.) So, Niobe will have $ in her account after she makes 12 deposits. 11 B Niobe decides to postpone buying a new car because she wants to get a new smart phone instead. She can pay the phone s full price of $580 up front, or she can agree to pay an extra $25 per month on her phone bill over the course of a two-year contract for phone service. What is the present cost to Niobe if she agrees to pay $25 per month for two years, assuming that she could put the money for the payments in a savings account that earns 3% annual interest and make $25 monthly withdrawals for two years? As in Part A, a 3% annual interest rate becomes a 0.25% monthly interest rate. If Niobe puts an amount M 1 in the savings account and lets it earn interest for 1 month, then she will have M M 1, or M 1, available to make her first $25 phone payment. Since she wants M 1 to equal $25, M 1 must equal _ $ This means that the present cost of her first phone payment is $24.94, because that amount of money will be worth $25 in 1 month after earning $0.06 in interest. Module Lesson 3
8 Similarly, if Niobe puts an additional amount M 2 in the savings account and lets it earn interest for 2 months, then she will have M 2 after 1 month and (1.0025M 2 ), or (1.0025) M 2, after 2 months. Since she wants (1.0025) M 2 to equal $25, M 2 $25 must equal _ $. (1.0025) This means that the present cost of her second phone payment is $. It also means that she must deposit a total of M 1 + M 2 = $ $ = $ in the savings account in order to have enough money for her first two phone payments. Generalize these results to complete the following table. Number of Payments Present Cost of Payments 1 25_ _ _ 25 (1.0025) _ _ 25 (1.0025) 2 + _ 25 (1.0025) 24 _ _ 25 (1.0025) _ 25 (1.0025) Find the sum of the finite geometric series that represents the present cost of 24 payments. a = _ r = n = S(24) = Although Niobe will end up making total payments of $25 24 = $, the present cost of the payments is $581.65, which is only slightly more than the up-front price of the phone.

Represent Real-World Problems The formula for the future value FV of an annuity consisting of n regular payments of p dollars at an interest rate of i (expressed (1 + i) as a decimal) is FV = p ( n - 1 ), which is valid for any payment rate (such as i monthly or annually) as long as the interest rate has the same time unit. The formula assumes that the future value is calculated when the last payment is made. Show how to derive this formula. Module Lesson 3

The formula assumes that the present value is calculated one time unit before the first payment is made. Show how to derive this formula. 21. Draw Conclusions Consider whether it s possible for the infinite geometric series a + ar + ar r + to have a finite sum. Since the formula S(n) = a( n 1 - r ) gives the sum of the first n terms of the series, a reasonable approach to finding the sum of all terms in the series is to determine what happens to S(n) as n increases without bound.
